| hi all i got a problem i had a colney of albino bn a while ago and to take eggs out i use to get a butter knife and slide it nderwith out poping any. but with my peppy's its not like that. the eggs are more sticky to the cave and just pop when i try so i got the cave and put it in a tank with meth blue and i put a pice of pipe on the cave that was pumping till they hatched then i got them in my tumbler.. so HOW do i take the eggs out? (i take them out because the male will eat them when the hatch ) | |

| Hi,like Doug said you will have to use a sharp knife with a thin blade,something like an artists knife or similar.Or just do what you did already and remove the cave. Bristlenoses | |

| sometimes you can get a different male to look after them, never know but one of your other males might want to look after them in a different tank | |
